Didactic teaching / didactic instruction

Teaching by telling students about the subject; teaching by talking, explaining, demonstrating, lecturing, posing questions to students, answering students’ questions and conducting discussions with students. This is in contrast to teaching by helping students to learn through experimenting and reflecting, by getting students to do things rather than primarily listening to the teacher
